'Seasoning' transition...



It is Friday, for those who are working would be jumping for joy as it’s the last work week of the day PLUS…Labor Day long weekend for the ones in the US. But today, I am not as happy as I should be. Or should I say that I am not physically happy. Nothing to do with the South Beach Diet (let's talk about something else, nanti orang bosan pulak!), but the weather is changing, summer to fall (autumn as some call it)…the allergies have attacked again!

My first bout was yesterday, in the office and I could not stop sneezing. I thought it was dust at first…but hey…the sneeze just didn’t stop at 2! So I knew right away that the allergies are starting to attack me again.

This is a 'twice a year' occasion for me, one in early spring and one in early fall. The eyes start to water, the nose starts to itch and gets watery hence, the sneeze…half a dozen times every morning.

Some will tell to to just stay home and recover. Errr, no, it gets worse at home cos I will be surrounded by more pollens. With the cats rolling in the backyard, it gets worse when my Pinky comes to sleep right in my face (cos she turns grey whenever she comes back from romping outside).

The only thing I could do is to take the allergy pill called Allegra and wait for the amazing drug to take the symptoms away. But today, its worse than before. Took Allegra 2 hours ago and my eyes still water. My head is heavy and hurting. I might have to take Ibuprofen to kill the pain in my head so that I could look at the computer screen longer and work (or pretend to work hah).

Happy Friday everyone, or happy Saturday to those who are on the other side of the world.

Hope you're feeling better already by now.

How's the diet going? The first 2 weeks are going to make your tongue coat, doesn't it. #2 pun keras and smelly. All coz of protein. I hate that. hehehee!! But all for a good cause and wishing u a successful one!!
